Show all answers

What is Acne?

Acne, pimples, zits, no matter what you call it, acne is a serious, often heartbreaking condition. And one of the most common, worldwide nearly 80% of people will suffer from acne at some point in their lives.

“There is no single disease which causes more psychic trauma, more maladjustment between parents and children, more general insecurity and feelings of inferiority and greater sums of psychic suffering than does acne vulgaris.” Sulzberger & Zaldems

A disease of the pilosebaceous glands, acne can be hard to treat. Each year, approximately $5 billion are spent on acne treatment, most if it on medication. However, many of these acne medications, ranging from the over-the-counter (OTC) to prescription, are expensive and may cause significant side effects. They generally require several months of continuous treatment, and many patients do not respond to them or witness only limited effect.

How does LHE Acne Phototherapy work?

Blocked pores create a closed anaerobic environment that leads to rapid buildup of a P. acnes colony under the skin.

LHE clears acne safely and effectively with a series of concentrated pulses of light and heat. The green wavelength light penetrates deep into the skin to cause proliferation of porphyrins, resulting in the destruction of P. acnes. The concentrated pulse is up to 10,000 times more effective in porphyrin activation than the continuous wave light used by other light-based technologies. The red wavelength produces anti-inflammatory results. The addition of heat, unique to the LHE method, further increases the effectiveness by opening the skin pores and producing a faster chemical reaction.
